Publisher's Synopsis
For a long time 'Feminism' had been a discussing issue among
men and women. Feminism is a driving force behind women's
movements and the aim of feminism is to promote the interests of
women. Since long there had been an accepted tendency that all types of
activities associated with women belong to the private domain of
individual within the family. Due to this belief women's issues were
discussed only within the household domain but the gradual change in
the attitude towards women's questions has started in different
dimensions. A new kind of awareness can be visualized among women.
This phenomenon has given rise to women's movements and feminism
is that kind of movement.
The inferior status of women in the society and their ongoing
problems on different issues, kept me on constant thinking regarding
women's unstable existence. Feminists' thinking, theories and their
movements influenced me to go into the deep understanding of
feminism and I decided to work on this issue. Through this issue we can
find a solution by which the existing power relations between women
and men in our society can be altered so that women can be brought into
the mainstream in our society.
